A good number of the readers here will be familiar with Madvillain, so I'll keep it brief. Madvillain is a hip hop supergroup of sorts comprised of two men: MF Doom and Madlib. Doom and Madlib are by all accounts weird guys. Both use a multitude of aliases to record music under and experiment with various styles of music that go much further than your typical boom bap. Out of everything that I recommend this is the album that I urge you to pick up before any others. So, even if hip hop is not your thing, give it a listen, and I'm sure you'll enjoy.
PS: This track is at Salon.com, so I'm not sure how long it'll be up for. Check them out too. They've got a pretty nice site.
